Pardon My Take
Dianna Russini On Coach Firings/Hirings, Brandon Walker On CFB, Who Is Under The Most Pressure Wild Card Weekend + Guys On Chicks

In the 90s was always a blowout. Yeah. It just seemed like you're going out of your way to take shots sometimes. Like, oh, you're part of the show.

People believe that the playoff was implemented because it was supposed to be some grand fix. Well, it wasn't fixing because nothing was broken. It was just a better way to determine a champion. It's more seats at the table. It's more excitement. And it gave us an October and November that were unparalleled in excitement. November had games.

Would anybody have cared about Ole Miss, Florida in previous years? No. Would anybody have cared about certain games? No. It gave us a great November. It gave us a bad first round. But then it also gave us Texas-Arizona State, which was remarkable.

And I'd rather watch that even if it's a blowout. People are nostalgic liars about college football. They're like, well, we should go back to how it used to be. 30 years ago, Penn State goes undefeated and gets nothing. They get nothing. There are these times in history where we're just letting sports writers decide. So we've come step by step by step.

The 12-team playoff, I think, is the best way to do it until we have a 16-team playoff, which would be even better.

That could work. Now, I will say this year it might have – you don't know this. This is year to year. Maybe eight teams was enough for this year, but you can't go based on – you can't do that.

Yeah, I mean, if you're a Texas fan, you're in your second straight playoff, or you're going to – I don't even know where they played that last game. Were they at the Fiesta Bowl? Yeah. No, they weren't at the Fiesta Bowl. They were at the Peach. They were at the Peach Bowl. Are you going to Atlanta knowing that you might have two other trips in the next two weeks? Maybe you're not.
